Research Abstract |
Eph/Ephrin mRNA and protein were expressed in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSC) cells. EphrinB2 was especially overexpressed in oral squamous cell carcinoma and high invasive OSC cells. The proliferation, attachment, and invasion were suppressed in EphrinB2 knock-downed cells as compared with control cells. The treatment with EphB/Fc chimera promoted the attachment, but inhibited the invasion of EphrinB2 knock-downed cells. these results suggest that EphrinB2 contributes to the proliferation, attachment, and invasion of OSC cells.
